Oral supplementation with 50, 100 and 150 μg/ml arginine to the silkworm larvae resulted in a significant increase in the larval weight, silkgland weight in only 150 μg/ml, cocooning percentage in all the fed groups, female cocoon weight, cocoon shell weight, cocoon shell ratio, male cocoon weight, cocoon shell weight and shell ratio is increased in all the treated groups, filament length were ...

Based on 3-D elasticity approach, differential quadrature method (DQM) in axial direction is adopted along with Globalized Nelder–Mead (GNM) algorithm to optimize the stacking sequence of a laminated cylindrical shell. The anisotropic cylindrical shell has finite length with simply supported boundary conditions. The elasticity approach, combining the state space method and DQM is used to obtain...

This paper studied Buckling analysis of porous truncated conical shell subjected to axial load. It is considered that a fluid undrained between porous material and the Porous material properties vary across the thickness of shell with a specific function also assumed that the edge of the shell is simply supported. The governing equations are based on the Sanders kinematics equations and the fir...

In this paper, the vibration of composite cylindrical shell with piezoelectric layers in the interior and exterior surfaces is investigated. The composite shell without piezoelectric layers can be studied and compared the results with the results of other researchers, the cylindrical shell laminated with layers of piezoelectric vibration checked. The result is a three-dimensional elasticity equ...

In this study, the torsional stability analysis is presented for thin cylindrical with the functionally graded (FG) middle layer resting on the Winker elastic foundation. The mechanical properties of functionally graded material (FGM) are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction according to a simple power law and exponential distributions in terms of volume fractions of the constituents...

the genetic variation and diversity among fifty-eight polyvoltine silkworm genotypes was estimated by using ten economic traits. the results revealed that the single shell weight showed higher genetic variation such as pcv% (17.20%), gcv% (12.93%), and heritability (56.5%) followed by single cocoon weight, shell ratio and matured larval weight. the d2 (mahalonobis? distance) statistics revealed...

in this study, the stability problem of a circular orthotropic cylindrical shell under the effect of anaxial compression varying with a power function of time is considered. at first, the modified donnell typedynamic stability and compatibility equations are obtained using love’s shell theory. applying the galerkinmethod and rayleigh-ritz variational techniques to these equations and taking the...
